A Charleston news special of Monday sa y s: General T. A. Huguenin, the con- federate commander of Fort Sumter, has issued orders to every company of the Fourth brigade to send a detaohment fully uniformed and with draped colors, to the great memorial meeting on the 12th of April to be held in honor of Gen- eral Beauregard, to whose great genius and courage is due the success of Charles- ton. The Lafayette artillery has been ordered to fire a salute of seventeen guns at sundown the same evening. In the session at Haggerstown, Md., Wednesday, of the Baltimore conference of the Methodist Episcopal church, a resolution was offered calling attention to the imprisonment in Brazil of Rev. J. H. Nelson, for publishing in that land an article on the worship of Mary. The resolution asked that the conference with the presiding bishop and missionary sec- retaries, call the attention of the presi- dent of the United States to the fact, and request him to do what he could in securing Mr. Nelson’s liberation. Advices of Monday from Oklahoma state that the Cherokee strip agitators have just discovered that should the Cherokees decide not to accept the terms of the strip bill passed by congress that the strip cannot be opened by the presi- dent. This caused great commotion among them, and a delegation will at Indian once go council. to Tullaquah to confer with the There is considerable excitement over the matter and the boom- ers declare that should the bill be re- jected by the Indians they will move on the strip in a body and stay there to shoot every steer brought in.

The English manufacturers replied to the Ulster firm that thev were not permitted to execute the orden This is considered as showing that the government means to enforce the order recently issued that no arms shall be admitted to Ireland without permission from '.he Dublin executive. .

Bradstreet and Dunn k Co.’s Report for the Past Week. R. G. Dun & Co. ’8 weekly review of trade eays: Business during the pa«t week has been affected by severe weather and even more by the stringency and un¬ e rtainty in the money markets. Rates have “ ounte ? f ; om ? on call to 51 per cent, and for two days ruled above 10 per cent, but extreme pressure was abated without any measure of relief, and on the announcement that the bonds treasury department will not issue but would use the bullions reserv- ed in maintaining gold payments, with- drawals of money for west and south nearly ceased. Gold to the amount of $1,000,000 was offered to tho treasury in exchange for legal tender by the bank of Denver and as much by one bank at Chi¬ cago, and rates here fell to six per cent. There was some liquidation in stocks but none of importance in products,and it is evident that the restraint of exports by speculation in the chief staples is an im- portant cause of the monetary strin- gency and of the loss of gold by the treasury.

On Mondav regulations Secretary Carlisle issued the new regarding the pre- cautions to be observed in admitting im- migrants to the United States. The reg- ui pious contain ssventeen articles, the first ten of which are substantially the sa ne as the regulations now in force. Arrticles eleven to fifteen inclusive, are practically new, made to conform to the new by the laws affecting immigration passed last congress and approved on the 3d of March last. Their most important points are as follows: Article eleven enacts that no vessel bringing emigrants from points where contagious or infectious diseases are pre- vailing shall be admitted to entry unless it appear by the certificate of ths consu- lar officer at such port that said emi- grants have been detained at the port of embarkation at least five days under medical observation in specially desig- n ,ted barracks or houses set apart for their exclusive use, and that their cloth- in S> baggage and personal effects have been disinfected before placed on board, Article thirteen provides that such lists o{ immigrants shall accompany each steamer. Article fourteen provides that immigrants shall be listed in convenient £ rou P 9 > and uo one list or manifest shall contain more than thirty names, COTTON GROWERS MEET And Discuss the Question of Acreage Reduction in Arkansas. A convention of cotton planters and merchants of Arkansas met at Little Rock Friday afternoon and was called to order by George M. Chaplme, commis- sioner of the bureau of agriculture, Ex-Governor Eagle was made chrirman. The convention was composed of plant- ers and merchants from forty counties in the state and members of the general assembly, both branches of which ac- cepted an invitation to participate in the proceedings. The question of reducing the cotton acreage in Arkansas was dis- cussed at length. Resolutions were a dopted urging a reduction of the acre- a £ e ^ rom ^bat of last year and also advo eating . a greater diversity of crops.

Attention is called to the new method of making bread of superior lightness, fineness and wholesomeness without yeast, a receipt for which is given else¬ where in this paper. Even the best bread makers will be interested in this. To every reader who will try this, and write the result to the Royal Baking Powder Co., 106 Wall street, New York, that company will send in return, free, a copy of the mo9t practical and useful cook book, containing one thousand re¬ ceipts for all kinds of cooking, yet pub¬ lished. Mention this paper. The Pulse in Health. Every one should know something about the pulse, a* it is a very import¬ ant index to the condition of the body in various diseases, and is a valuable aid to the determining of a patient’s condi¬ tion in nearly all diseases, says “Medi¬ cal Brief.” In order to know the condi¬ tion of the pulse in disease it is necessa¬ ry for us to examine it in health. The pu'se is about 120 to 140 at birth, It gradually diminishes until it reaches about ninety at the age of seven or eight years. In adult life it is sixty- five to seventy-five, and in old age not much over sixty. Females have a somewhat more frequent pulse than males, the difference being from five to six beats a minute. A differ¬ ence of five to ten beats is made by and changing from a lying position to sitting from sitting to standing. By vio¬ lent running the pulse may be increased to 140 or more. The pulse is felt by placing the first two fingers upon the ar¬ tery at the outside of the arm, with the recocd finger toward the heart. The force of 1 he heart is determined by pressing noticing with the second finger and how much force is required to compress the artery, so that the pulse tanuot be felt by the first finger. The pulse may be felt at the temple, the neck and various other situations. The Baby’s Seat and Table. The high chairs used for children are injurious. A bar is placed across the front of the chair to prevent the little one from falling, and the little one leans forward against it to get at the play¬ things on the table in front. The chest is thus pressed inward against the bar, the shoulders are rounded with the scapu'se projecting, the head falls for¬ ward, and the muscles of the back are elongated and weakened. The legs, too, resting on the board placed underneath to support them, are cramped, and the child is actually forced into a bad and unhealthy position. A rug on the floor is the best place for a small child to play, and it should be allowed to roll about as much as it likes. As it grows bigger, a low chair and table suited for its size can be provided; if it falls off the cha r no haun is done, but to fasten a child in one position produces serious evil. Misuse of Dish Towels. The habit some housekeepers have of using dishcloths and towels for lifting hot spiders, dishes, etc., cannot be too quickly overcome; they not only shorten the useful days of dish towels, but run the risk of transfering some of the stove black to their table china, Holders should be provided for lifting hot dishes and kept in a handy place, If house- keepers would accustom themselves to the use of holders they would soon find them much handier than the unmanage- ble dish towels.

WANTED Salesne-x^ or bsre^Sne ride Significance of Intermarriages. The American nation exhibits in its heterogenous character the results of this divinely directed law, without the oper¬ ations of which all other means toward the development of a common impulse of patriotism would bo hindered and crippled, writes John Lambert Payne in an article on “The Secret of Happ\ Journal. Marriages” in the March Ladies’ Home An appeal to statis¬ tical facts is here opportune. By ref erence to the census returns of 1881 — those for 1891 being unfinished—it will be seen that there were then living in the United States 563,434 persons having native fathers and foreign mothers, and 1,337,664 who had native mothers and foreign fathers. These figures, while clearly establishing the fact I had just termarriages indicated, also show the nature of the in¬ which had taken place up to that time. It was a significant thing that the affinities formed between foreign men and native women were considerably more numerous than those between na¬ tive men and foreign women. Advantages of Good Hoads. A country without roads will remain undeveloped, its hidden treasure 8 stored away. Where poor roads prevail every¬ thing else is virv apt to be poor, the horse, fanner and merchant. If two horses haul the load of four, one wagon haul the load of two, one set of harness haul the load of two, one driver serve for two and six miles instead of three be made per hour, the aggregate sav¬ ing would double the net income of the average fanner. This desideratum can only be accomp ished by the means of good public roads. The effect of good public roads upon the land value is to increase the value of such lands. Ex¬ perience ,has shown that the v due of ground is in direct ratio to the good condition of the streets or roads which traverse them. A road system is the means of facilitating intercourse. In¬ tercommunication is the backbone of business. Good public roads are the primary nece-siiies of civilized life and national prosperity—American Farmer. A Big Boom.

The hair, like all things of vegetable jr»wth, is improved by clipping the ends once a month. It i9 not at all cer- ain, however, that cutting the hair im- proves its growth after a person h# 8 . reached the adult age. On the contrary, it sometimes produces baldness. It is a great mistake to use any alkali, even soap, in washing the head, as this tends *o make the hair dry. When the hair is naturally dry, a little vas line may be j used to advantage around the roots, but only to render the hair soft, not enough to make it greasy. His Usual Fat".
